games are just better on nintendo systems
deal with it, playing doom on the go is more fun than behind your toaster on your smegma saturated gaming chair
It runs fine but it is graphically downgraded, problem is they carried those graphical downgrades forward to later re releases with the definitive edition content on other platforms
Unironically. If a game is plays serviceably on both the Switch and a home console. Why shouldn't it get a higher score on the Switch?
Most of them don't though, see .
>fact-check >one of the games is still 9 points higher on Switch than any other platform >another is significantly worse on Xbox, especially One than any other platform >demanding FPS that is actually way worse to play on Switch got correctly rated worse obvi
well the numbers can be discussed in many ways (for atelier riza, the nintendo critics score match the user reviews score) but either way the pattern is very different from the one implied in the OP
If I can get the game on the switch then I would. Being able to continue playing while taking a shit, maybe making some dinner, food prepping for the week, etc. hell yeah
the fact that the glitchy, stuttering, unfinished mess that are scat and vomit got anything higher than a 60 shows that the israelitetendo bonus is real.
>PC users have
same userscore, moron. it's the journos who are moronic.
>same userscore, moron. it's the journos who are moronic.
It's just you. The PC version only has 4 reviews. Of course the weighted average is going to be different.
The scores will vary because the different versions are reviewed by different outlets and don't have the same number of reviews. I don't see how this is hard to understand.

Darren is a notorious tendie sperg that's been active for many years. Most famous for creating a really obvious falseflagging persona that he named "eric", where he pretended to be a sony fan. Was finally caught with hard evidence against him just a couple months ago, and has been melting down ever since.
darren is the schizo tulpa of eric, a notorious sony fanboy and terminal moron
eric has doxxed himself a few times in his tardrages
he has a tendency to post in very easily noticed patterns then has a tantrum when anyone points it out
hes usually around seething in any thread thats even slightly nintendo related, but is most commonly spotted falling into schizospirals in the weekly Famitsu threads where he tries to cope about nintendo's stranglehold on the japanese market
nothing puts a smile on my face more than seeing that image
whatever drove him to the depth of replying to himself that many times in one thread just to damage control for a company, only to get publicly humiliated by a janny

around the time companies started paying for ads on review sites and sponsoring disgusting youtubers who are generally prone to be bought even more than the media is. we are living in a time of greed where honest and morals are laughed at and lies and selling out are praised as long as the individual is a good consumer
Nintendo has a dedicated mafia that buys out scores (same as Snoy but snoy is poorer and dumber)
Notice how they will go after weeb fanservice and downplay their own weeb games (fire emblem, xenoblade) yet Zelda fanservice is allowed
Notice how Nintendo forced Mario Wonder over Xenoblade DLC or Engage, and how Pikmin 4 won over FE
I would say the cod franchise is what made corruption an acceptable practice. once all the other companies realized you can simply buy and br8be yourself into good review scores they all started doing it. it all took off with kevin spacey

And so later everyone started to pretend that the game is actually great. Just like Dark Souls where many originally gave the game a lot of shit for being unfinished after OnS or having fricked up balancing and broken covenants. But because Dark Souls became the popular thing to like reviewers suddenly just said "nah its a masterpiece can't piss off the fans or we look like idiots"
>snoy schizo hours
There is no nintendo bonus. Do you dumbasses really think the same person reviews every single version of the game that releases? Even then why would nintendo pay off reviewers for a third party game? To get more sales? Considering the money for a sale is split 70/30 in the dev's favor, that would be a massive waste of money. You would have a point if you were talking about something like pokemon or zelda, but you can't really expect intelligence out of snoytroons with no games can you?
I hate to tell you this, but most of you are just schizos. Most of the time you accuse someone of being "eric" or some other person, you're just accusing a random person. I used to think like you guys until someone accused me of being someone else and it made me think "Is this what I look like?".
What are you even trying to argue anon? If eric wasn't real zelda threads would not get made nonstop on this board. Starfield seems to be far more hated and yet I only see it mentioned every now in again. Eric or not, it's pathetic and hilarious
Getting shit running on a handheld is factually more impressive than a knock off PC and, more importantly, unlike every non-PC system gives the system and therefore the ports an actual reason to exist that isn't based in laziness of the end user.
>Why is the average score of the version with less reviews different from the average score of the version with more reviews and different reviewers/publications?
Those reviews aren't done by the same person. Different people will have different opinions. This post operates under the assumption the person who reviewed the game on Switch would like it less on other platforms or vice versa when there is no proof of that.
The premise of the thread is stupid, but there is an argument for outlets just consolidating reviews. No reason to have separate reviews unless the differences are absolutely massive. Just have a part of the review that breaks down the technical differences between platforms.
The Nintendo Bonus has always existed, going back to even the N64 days. Look at the review scores for the Zelda and Mario games back then when they were deeply flawed.
it didn't, Metacritic used to let you check a publisher's average score prior to their redesign and Nintendo's was 76 versus both SIE and Xbox Game Studios' 75 i.e. no practical difference
for reference most other third party publishers' averages were also in the low-mid 70s range with a few like Sega and Ubisoft being in the high 60s
its a bit weird when some horrible looking game with shit textures gets promoted as goty by some outlets
I'd assume the scores dont mean anything across different platforms, a 90 metacritic switch title is worthless if you're a pc gamer since that game might be extremely bad. But when they give awards to those switch titles over pc games its really strange.

>playstation focused outlets are less favorable to works with an anime artstyle than nintendo ones
no shit
>4 critics for each
meaningless anyway
>same site gives better score to the same game on nintendo systems
>no nintendo bonus here, eric!!
This one is because Doom released on Switch significantly later after patches had already improved the game.
This one (and 99% of examples) is because PS-only/Xbox-only reviewers docked the game 20 points for having "problematic cute anime girls".
>Switch version has the lowest userscore
Kek, it probably runs like absolute crap
It runs fine but it is graphically downgraded, problem is they carried those graphical downgrades forward to later re releases with the definitive edition content on other platforms
Good thing mods on PC restored the launch release graphics
the Nintendo version actually does have more in this case
XI and XI S are different games though.
this has been debunked

what the frick
PC users have a higher standard
the fact that the glitchy, stuttering, unfinished mess that are scat and vomit got anything higher than a 60 shows that the israelitetendo bonus is real.

Just stfu
Nintendo bonus is not real, erictroony
He posted evidence that it's real.
You lost, Eric 😉
Jewtentroon is asshurt lmao
Evidence of nothing, Doom launched with multiplayer woes out the wazoo. By the time it hit the Switch, that had all long since been addressed.
"eric" doesn't exist, Darren.
Who's darren?
BILLY MAYS
Darren is a notorious tendie sperg that's been active for many years. Most famous for creating a really obvious falseflagging persona that he named "eric", where he pretended to be a sony fan. Was finally caught with hard evidence against him just a couple months ago, and has been melting down ever since.
Wow, that's totally incorrigible!
>Was finally caught with hard evidence
I'm gonna need to see that evidence before I believe you
it's in my other pants but I'll show you next time for sure
Fricking which is it?
darren is just what eric spams when people point at him
I'll let you be the judge
nothing puts a smile on my face more than seeing that image
whatever drove him to the depth of replying to himself that many times in one thread just to damage control for a company, only to get publicly humiliated by a janny

Shut up, Mike
who's eric? is it the name of your imaginary friend, schizo?
around the time companies started paying for ads on review sites and sponsoring disgusting youtubers who are generally prone to be bought even more than the media is. we are living in a time of greed where honest and morals are laughed at and lies and selling out are praised as long as the individual is a good consumer
This is what causes it
Its not a bonus its the "Nintendo handicap" for tendie morons
>it's not X it's [X slightly rephrased but functionally the same exact thing]
Games are just less fun on a playstation
I didn't know it expanded out from their first party games to any game on their console.
Nintendo has a dedicated mafia that buys out scores (same as Snoy but snoy is poorer and dumber)
Notice how they will go after weeb fanservice and downplay their own weeb games (fire emblem, xenoblade) yet Zelda fanservice is allowed
Notice how Nintendo forced Mario Wonder over Xenoblade DLC or Engage, and how Pikmin 4 won over FE
I would say the cod franchise is what made corruption an acceptable practice. once all the other companies realized you can simply buy and br8be yourself into good review scores they all started doing it. it all took off with kevin spacey
there is no nintendo bonus, there are only individual Zelda and Pokémon bonus's
those reviews are by 2 different people
lmao cant wait for the call of duty games on the switch 2, it's going to mindbreak OP.
>2017
>2016
Ign gets peer pressured into giving a higher score to an aclaimed game
In the 1980s
>7.1 for the game
>8.5 for the Switch port of the game
it's that easy, they're judging the port's quality, not the game
But the switch port is terrible, it's barely playable
Nintendo fans like anything with full price
That's more of a "it's 1 year later and we now know the general consensus about this game and want to avoid giving a controversial score" bonus.
Consider the following :
Switch games are inherently shit, so when actual good games came out on it people praise them more than they should
>nu-DOOM gets released
>people rightfully give it shit
>press X to get loot
>LE RIP N TEAR
>cutscenes after cutscenes
>linear ass level design where the occasional side tour only ends with you finding something like a arrow to le knee reference
>pretty much all the fights take place in small boring ass arenas with 5 enemies top at best where new ones just keep spawning to make up for it because lol console limitations
>but zoomers really like the game

But because Dark Souls became the popular thing to like reviewers suddenly just said "nah its a masterpiece can't piss off the fans or we look like idiots"
and then you woke up seething and posted this in the vain hope that crying about 8 year old game will suddenly make people hate it
Isn't Filip Miucin the gay who shamelessly plagiarized the Dead Cells review for IGN?
Yup. They ended up having to redo a bunch of his work. This appears to be one of the few that wasn't plagiarized or at least found to be so
>snoy schizo hours

The Switch version is better than the versions on PS4 and Xbone because it has gyro aiming. Not better than PC of course.
I remember some nintendo blogs suddenly reviewbombing Fata Morgana when it got the perfect score kek
Nintendo bonus exists because Switch standards are lower since getting games to run on a 2017 tablet is an achievement by itself
I hate to tell you this, but most of you are just schizos. Most of the time you accuse someone of being "eric" or some other person, you're just accusing a random person. I used to think like you guys until someone accused me of being someone else and it made me think "Is this what I look like?".
>I..I used to like you guys...
What to we call this new tactic of Eric's?
Case in point.
What are you even trying to argue anon? If eric wasn't real zelda threads would not get made nonstop on this board. Starfield seems to be far more hated and yet I only see it mentioned every now in again. Eric or not, it's pathetic and hilarious
The extra points are because they are surprised that shit hardware can even run it
It's the handheld bonus.
Getting shit running on a handheld is factually more impressive than a knock off PC and, more importantly, unlike every non-PC system gives the system and therefore the ports an actual reason to exist that isn't based in laziness of the end user.

>Why is the average score of the version with less reviews different from the average score of the version with more reviews and different reviewers/publications?
and what's your cope for the one in the op?
Those reviews aren't done by the same person. Different people will have different opinions. This post operates under the assumption the person who reviewed the game on Switch would like it less on other platforms or vice versa when there is no proof of that.
People are still for some reason too moronic to realize that each outlet have more than one reviewer.
Saying this is too smart for Ganker to understand. Post a wojak without text next time for better results.
It's always been a thing, whether paid or just out of sheer fanboyism. The Switch version of DOOM is objectively the worst one.
>Same game
>Same features
>Same content
>Additional functionality (being able to play portably)
>Better score
I see nothing wrong with that
It's been around for about as long as the Nintendo drought. People view games as being better when they haven't had anything to play on that system.
toddlers have lower standards m8
What's IGN on about? Doom was a great game.
Ercitroonygay is the biggest schizo this board has ever seen.
With how weak the Switch is, running Doom 2016 on it is an 8.5 achievement.
>The game is held back by shitty hardware
>This is a good thing
That's not what I said
Nintendo is the Apple of video games.
I am from a third world country and here all game journalist talk openly about the Nintendo bonus kek
The premise of the thread is stupid, but there is an argument for outlets just consolidating reviews. No reason to have separate reviews unless the differences are absolutely massive. Just have a part of the review that breaks down the technical differences between platforms.
AHEM
8.8
That is all
No one remembers that meme
Then today I will remind them.
The Nintendo Bonus has always existed, going back to even the N64 days. Look at the review scores for the Zelda and Mario games back then when they were deeply flawed.
